The first step in this process is to perform a verification of benefits for your insurance to make sure that you have coverage for ABA services and determine if there is a cost associated with services.

We will collect the documents that are required for your specific insurance to obtain authorization for ABA. This may include the Autism Comprehensive Diagnostic Evaluation, referral or letter of medical necessity, and IEP.
Once documents are collected, you will complete a clinical call with our Director of Clinical Services. This call will be approximately 15-30 minutes and allows us to assess your child’s individual needs, give an estimated number of hours of ABA that is medically necessary, determine service delivery location, and ensure we are the right fit for your family.
Once a clinical call is completed and it is deemed medically necessary to move forward with services, we will then request authorization for an initial assessment from your insurance company.
Once we receive approval, we will then schedule your initial assessment with your BCBA/BCaBA.
After the initial assessment is complete, your BCBA/BCaBA will write up your plan of care and review with you.
We will then submit the plan of care to your insurance for ongoing services.
While we wait for approval, we begin working on finding a dedicated RBT to staff your child’s therapy.
Once approved and a staff member is hired, we begin services!
Every 6 months we must submit for reauthorization to continue ABA services, if clinically appropriate and medically necessary.
Throughout your child’s time in ABA therapy you will be involved in the process and we will discuss your child’s path towards graduation as that is our goal for all of our kiddos!
